Introduction

Hello to everyone who might happen to read this. My name is Raiko and I have a little session report here I want to write to you about. About the title - on the 18th of February I had 100 days left to serve my country in the army, so I decided to play a game every day and then write a session about them. You can read them all in the Geeklist Geeklist Project: 100 days left to serve in the army!. For my 18th game in the series I chose, well actually Agnes chose, a game called Rumis. Now the official name here is Blokus 3D, but I think that these games should not be one. I own blokus, and it is little different. We played two games, and these games were fast.

The game

We used for our first game board side Pisac. That side allows us to build up to four levels, since there are only 2 players. So my strategy was to make other player, Agnes, to go down on me.. A bad joke here. Thing is that if you don't let the other player choose where to put their piece, then you will win this game. Quite easy to control with two or three players, but little harder with four players. First thing I did I created a situation, were other player thinks, that he/she can block me with only one stone! That is false, but it works, ant they just walk into the trap. And after that I just have to play piece by piece on to other player pieces and collect my points afterwards.
The First game ended 25 points to me as a blue player, and 10 points to her, as a yellow player. She said in the middle of the first game, that she remembered now, why she didn't like game. I asked why then, and she she said, that because she had to be a foundation and she didn't like it.
After the first game, she wanted to play one more. We turned the board over, and there was Tambo side.
That side allowed us to build only 2 levels, which made some quite interesting play. Some pieces were never used. The second game ended, so that I had one extra piece and she had two extra. After counting the score, she had 15 points and I had 22 points.
So this was our little game of Rumis!
This is it for my 18th game in the series. The games actually go prtty fast that why. I imagine that one day I write here my 55th game and so on, so all I have to do, is to be on it as good as I can with all the training and stuff. I just realized, that last 3 weeks I'm gonna be in the woods, so these last 3 week of games I should play before or after the wood training.
That leaves me 82 more games to play! Til next time!

Rumis is the correct name. I still think that they should be separate entries here on BGG. Blokus somehow makes it little more child like or something...

'Tis but thy name that is my enemy;
Thou art thyself, though not a Blokus.
What's Blokus? it is nor hand, nor foot,
Nor arm, nor face, nor any other part
Belonging to a man. O, be some other name!
What's in a name? that which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet;
So Rumis would, were he not Rumis call'd,
Retain that dear perfection which he owes
Without that title. Rumis, doff thy name,
And for that name which is no part of thee
Take all myself.
